You can watch 10 Netflix documentaries for free on YouTube right now

If you’re looking for some fresh inspo to shake up your quarantine watch list, Netflix has got you covered. The streaming service is offering 10 of its documentary films and series for free on YouTube. Netflix hopes to help teachers and students—or anyone looking to dive deep into a topic of their choosing—stay engaged with educational content during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

With schools across the country closed indefinitely, this is a solid opportunity for anyone to check out these educational documentaries for free, even if you don’t have access to a Netflix account. Along with the documentaries, Netflix is providing additional educational resources.

Netflix wrote in its announcement, “We hope this will, in a small way, help teachers around the world.”

The 10 docs and docuseries are currently available in English, with Netflix noting that subtitles in more than a dozen languages will be available later this week. There’s truly something for everyone.
